2020 PORSCHE TAYCAN

Filed Oct 21, 2026


When turning a corner at lower speeds (15-25mph each time) the car starts shuddering violently and will not accelerate, slowing to a stop. The display shows an engine control error. Once you turn the car off and back on it drives fine.

Vehicle experienced a sudden, complete loss of motive power while driving in active traffic at night, creating an immediate crash hazard. The vehicle had just been picked up from an authorized Porsche Service Center approximately 12 hours prior (picked up between 11:00AM - 12:00 PM, failed at 11:09 PM) after undergoing a comprehensive 60K mile scheduled service and a mandatory manufacturer software recall campaign. Without warning, the vehicle completely stalled and dropped into an…

The car is an electric car. I was driving on the highway and the car shut down completely leaving me without power steering, engine control error, electrical system error. I had to glide to the shoulder of the highway. Luckily traffic was light enough that I was able to get over on the highway and avoid getting hit by other vehicles. I could not open the doors and was locked in the car. I waited, restarted the car and got off the highway. The car shut down two more times while I tried to get…

While driving at approximately 90 mph on XXX on the highway, my 2021 Porsche Taycan (VIN [XXX], 51,730 miles) displayed an electrical system error with the turtle (reduced power) icon. The car received all loss of acceleration, warning message to pull over to a complete stop, and was able thankfully to pull over safely to the shoulder. I took the vehicle to Porsche Atlanta Perimeter on XXX. The technician found fault code P0E9D00, DC/DC converter current circuit 2 short to ground, with an…

2021 PORSCHE TAYCAN

Filed Sep 17, 2026


I was making a left hand turn into a shopping center today around 4:55pm and the collision indicator flashed on and jerked my car to a stop in the middle of the road. There were no cars in my immediate area so it should not have been triggered. It was incredibly dangerous as it left me in the middle of the road, mid-turn. I am unaware if this has been checked by my dealership but we have had other issues that they have claimed to check to no avail.

There is a red ring that comes up on left side of dashboard that has text inside it that says Keep hands on steering wheel. It removes acceleration of the car and stiffens the steering wheel until you jerk the wheel and get it to turn off. It is very distracting and happens suddenly. I drive on XXX in the [XXX] suburbs, it is a very straight highway with a lot of congestion. This safety feature is going to get me killed. People are tailgating, swerving, driving like lunatics during rush…

Porsche dealers are not fixing this recall. They offer service appointments 6 months in advance, and then cancel at the last minute. I've been trying to get this recall done for 18 months, with no success.

2020 PORSCHE TAYCAN

Filed Aug 10, 2026


Three NHTSA safety recalls are open and unremedied on my 2020 Porsche Taycan 4S: 25V896 (high-voltage battery — cell-module short circuit / fire risk), 24V732 (battery inspection, cell-module replacement, software update), and 24V455 (front brake hoses — cracking and brake-fluid leakage). Open status is confirmed by the manufacturer's own lookup at [XXX] as of XXX. The recalls cannot be completed because the manufacturer's authorized network refuses to confirm or schedule the work. The vehicle…

2020 PORSCHE TAYCAN

Filed Jun 27, 2026


I own a 2020 Porsche Taycan 4S (in service Nov 2, 2020) with a performance+ HV battery. I am currently facing a third round of module replacements.  The service chronology and detail is set forth in the attached e-mail I sent to Porsche and the attached service reports. The safety concern I have is that when the defective modules fail, the vehicle suddenly becomes inoperable. The last failure incident in April 2026 resulted in the vehicle blocking in two other vehicles until it could be…
